מי שקנה קרקע בא”י, ומת בחו”ל בשעת המגפה, וא”א להעבירו כעת לא”י, וקברוהו בחו”ל ע”מ להעבירולא”י כשיתאפשר הדבר, מותר לפנותו משני טעמים, דמבואר בשו”ע יו”ד (רס”י שס”ג) שבדרך כלל אסור לפנות את המת מקבר לקבר, אא”כ פנוהו ע”מ לקברו בא”י, או שקברוהו מלכתחילה ע”מ לפנותו.
A family who is currently unable to use their burial plots in Eretz Yisrael due to the Coronavirus, may perform a temporary burial in Chutz L’Aretz and when the situation permits, the body may be interred and moved to Eretz Yisrael as is indicated clearly in the Shulchan Aruch.
